College to Career Diversity Internship Program

Overview

In 2018, HASC began partnering with Health Career Connection (HCC), a national internship program. HCC has partnered with organizations to help them meet their workforce excellence goals while providing career-launching opportunities. The program also offers career advancement support for underrepresented, low-income and first-generation college students. 

HASC’s HCC workforce initiative effort — the College to Career Development Internship Program (CDIP) — is a 10-week, full-time paid internship program. CDIP recruits high-performing students and recent graduates whose interests and skills align with HASC members’ needs and projects. The program also enables hospitals to meet broader development and workforce goals by offering an efficient pipeline for integrating new talent into open positions.

HASC works with HCC to connect with leadership at member hospitals to assist with:

  • Hosting an intern
  • Identifying your substantive project
  • Completing the agreement process
  • Recruitment via targeted promotions on HASC communications and digital marketing channels
